�20 April 24th To day. it is cloudy and rather cool. we practised shooting at the taget with our pistols. we did pretty well for green horns. in the afternoon I was on special duty. had to go and help buary a horse that died. I received 2[?] letters to.day. one from home and one from Sandwich Mass was very glad to hear from the folks. April 25th To day it rains like the Devil. and I am on guard. it is most always my luck to be on guard when it rains or snows. I do not feel like standing guard to day for I have got a severe cold. and sore throat. but I suppose I have got to do it anyhow root
